OWNERSHIP OF ARTWORK
Red Peach Designs retains copyright ownership of all original artwork or parts contained therein, whether preliminary or final. Upon receipt of full payment, the client will be granted license to use final web design for their website. Rights to photos, graphics, source code and software are specifically not transferred to the client, and remain the property of their respective owners. Red Peach Designs retains the right to use the completed project and any preliminary designs for the purpose of design competitions, future publications on design, educational purposes, marketing materials, and portfolio.

PRODUCTION SCHEDULE/DELIVERY OF PROJECT
The client will assume any shipping or insurance costs related to the project. Any alteration or deviation from the above specifications involving extra costs will be executed only upon approval with the client. The designer shall not incur any liability or penalty for delays in the completion of the project due to actions or negligence of client, unusual transportation delays, unforeseen illness, or external forces beyond the control of the designer. If such event(s) occur, it shall entitle the designer to extend the completion/delivery date, by the time equivalent to the period of such delay.

COPYRIGHT
The client guarantees that any text, graphics, photos, designs, trademarks, or other artwork furnished to RPD/AWS for inclusion in the project are owned by the client, or that the client has express permission from the rightful owner to use each of these elements, and will hold harmless, protect and defend RPD/AWS and its subcontractors from any claim or suit arising from the use of such elements furnished by the client.

THIRD PARTY SHIPPING
In the event any material necessary for the production of the project must be shipped to a third party for additional processing, typesetting, photographic work, color separation, press work, or binding, the designer will incur no liability for losses incurred in transit, or due to the delay of the shipper of the third party.

CLAIMS PERIOD
Claims for defects, damages, and/or shortages must be made by the client in writing within a period of fifteen (15) days after delivery of all or any part of the order. Failure to make such claim within the stated period shall constitute irrevocable acceptance and an admission that they fully comply with terms, conditions, and specifications.

PROOFING OF FINAL PROJECT
The designer shall make every effort to ensure the final product is free of any grammatical and spelling errors, before giving the final product to the client. It is agreed that it is the client's responsibility to ensure that there are no spelling or grammatical errors contained in the final product.
